Dunno. But having to pay to get access to flashpoints, operations and PVP means flashpoints and operations and PVP will have FAR LESS people, which means that those who pay money to play them can`t play them as well.

Or he might say "we try to make players enjoy playing what already exists more so we don`t need to all the time release new content" And it actually is what i want. I don´t care about typical MMO style of thinking "always do more new stuff", i want to enjoy content that we have for a very long time. Arguably one of biggest issues with MMOs is that you always need to release new content. But i guess most honest answer would be: EA wants to milk money and we release broken features/without enough content so we look like heroes when we fix them. That is what they are doing with Star Wars Battlefront, they released game without any content or features so when they add some features in Battlefront 4 that we already had in Battlefront 2 they look like heroes to those with short memory.

That works for large amount of people every time when they actually have good reason and solution works for it. But if they don`t have good enough reason or it is not solution for reason, then they should not explain.

Intel does make some GPUs. No idea how good they are though.

I truly hope they still let us pick stances... Stance is great way to customise your gameplay. I hope we get less min maxing and more customization that lets us choose what to do.

Reported for using logic and brains in internet. Go away.

Oh god that is massive... Most lightsabers seem to be decent, but that is far too big, unless it really is expection.

If you ask me, it should be like this: Premium: -Free pernament access to expansions at the release -Complimentary cartel coins every month -Complimentary hypercrate every year -Increased experience gain (like it is at the moment without double XP) and credit income (like it is at the moment) -Priority in any queue -Complimentary random change cube every month you are sub, to a limit of 12. after you have been subbed for 12 months you would get 12 cubes every month -Cheaper prices (like it is at the moment) -1 month early access to all expansions -something else i forgot? Preferred: -no bonuses -less XP and income than sub but more than free 2 play -no access to expansions without purchase -must buy to get unlimited credit cap -more expensive prices than sub, cheaper prices than free 2 play -must buy other species -something else i forgot? Free 2 play: -No access to expansions -More expensive prices -less XP gain -less income -no bonuses -limited credit cap -only limited amount of species to choose from -something else i forgot? Players would love this system and it would be fair. Some hard core subs will complain becouse they want to punish everyone who does not sub, but players in general would like it far more. And subs would have no reason to complain as they would save huge amounts of money and get big bonuses. Free 2 play games that have fair and liked business plan like that get far more love and income than games like SWTOR where you get massive penalties for not being a sub. Like it or not, but like it more if sub is bonus and great reward that they want instead of being forced to have sub or you get penalised.

Easy for sure. But it can be time consuming. With bad luck, it can take days. It took me 4 real life hours to find one part on Taris. But i did everything else in less than hour i believe, and i am turtle, altough sometimes not that fast.

Kids have ALWAYS played war. But they don`t actually want war at all. Little kids already know difference between fiction and fact. You should know difference too. It is amazingly fun to kill people in video games, to rob banks and to fight a war. But i would never want to do any of that in real life. It is true that games do affect how you act in real life. Violent games make you more violent in real life. For 15 minutes or so, then you are back to normal.

Maybe Bioware tries something different. Instead of trying to steal players from WOW, maybe they just want to borrow players from everywhere to come play SWTOR for a while, say once a year to play trough all new expansion content, and then let them go back to their game until you release new expansion. Makes certain kind of sense. You can`t compete with WOW by making MMO that is just outright better. SWTOR was certainly better than WOW was when SWTOR started being developed, but while TOR was developed so was WOW, which meant TOR was never outright better than WOW. And if they try to create new traditional MMO, they have to start again from the start, while WOW keeps developing. And you can´t compete with Mass Effect for story. So instead of trying to always have players playing TOR, they may accept that players want to play Mass Effect, then play TOR, then play WOW again and once new expansion gets released they come back to TOR to give some cash, play trough new content and leave again. Trying to steal players from WOW without them leaving TOR is not going to happen. Trying to steal players from Mass Effect without them leaving won`t happen. So why not just borrow them, give them good experience so they throw in some cash and want to come back again. Dunno if it works. But it makes certain kind of sense for sure.

You can quit anytime you want. Voting with wallet is only thing EA understands

Lets hope KOTET changes this so i could finally give my Imperial Agent companions proper Imperial uniforms.

Indeed. And we can only use 7 of them at the same time anyway (1 active 6 crew missions)... Companions used to be cool. Now they are just forgettable and boring and i could not care less about them. Then again, forgettable repetitive stuff sounds like typical MMO content. I was hoping KOTET would give us reason to want as many companions as possible and some way to enjoy them all - but does not look like it.

What you need is another companion! Pre-order now and get it for free! Old companions? Nah, you don´t need them back. But we will give you companion that without dialogue and without customisation and without any reason or sense or anything, you just give us money. EA logic ^^ If this would be strategy game or you could do something strategy game-ish then it might be cool to have that many companions. But we can´t do anything but use 1 of them with you and 6 for crew missions making lot of companions just pointless. They need to do something reasonable with them.

I hope they just give free sub for veteran subs. I would not qualify, but it rewarding veterans always pays off.

If they cause problems in PVP balance, well first of all there are always balance problems in any PVP game, and secondly, you could just lock them out of PVP if it is so big issue. Adding new advanced classses is extremely easy for SP and reguires no work on story, only on abilities and such, and we already have so many abilities that it may just take short renaming and couple of stat changes and that is that. Considering Grand master Satele Shan is apparently on strike, adding advanced classes makes sense. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=898396 I personally would prefer to just have more customisation for classes. Give my Imperial Agent Operative a pistol would make a lot of sense, wielding blaster rifle even though you use knife all the time makes no sense But if we must use classes, i would just like to have pistol wielding Imperial Agent class.

But... how do i press them? We need automatic button presser.

This is indeed big issue. That is why i suggest that in at the beginning of KOTFE our legacy characters form alliance and become our playable companions who you can swap to and continue where you left. They could make short prelogue for KOTFE where your characters meet and unite. You would only have to play trough story once, and since we are getting repeatable story you still could play it trough more than once if you want. And yeah, music in this game is 10/10

Thanks for reminder, i forgot to sign it. I also don´t think it will happen, but it never hurts to sign petition, it can only be positive.

Certainly not. I hate when companies hire celebrities just becouse they are celebrities. I don´t care who they are as long as they do good job. Male Shepard from Mass Effect 3 did awesome job and he was not professional i believe. In Mass Effect 1 and 2 i was not impressed by voice acting in general, but in mass effect 3 male shep has amazing and one of the most fitting voice acting ever - for my shep at least.

Giving everyone access to them would be great way to boost numbers in there don´t you think? And as proven by multiple games, more players is good way to boost income.

I want stats about this asap. I did not provide any either, but i wonder if you know where one could see those stats?

Yes let me just check that private information that often is not allowed to be shared...

Oh? Awesome
